"And I will surely hide My face in that day." (Deuteronomy 31:18) When we transgress our covenant with G-d it is our own feelings of remorse and self disappointment that create a distance between ourselves and G-d, causing Him to hide His countenance from us. But this terrifying sense of remoteness is no more than a self-generated illusion, as G-d is always with us, in our good moments and our bad. Vayelech (Deuteronomy 31:1-31:30) Parashat Vayelech is read on Shabbat: Tishrei 5, 5769/October 4, 2008 http://www.templeinstitute.org/
